21 Reasons for Trusting In God – Laura Buckley

21 Reasons for Trusting In God

Laura Buckley

Do you or someone you know doubt or question if God is real? I know that sounds like a blasphemous question for a Christian podcast – but it is one that is being asked in society today.

I hear questions all of the time that try to plant the seed of doubt into the minds of some people about the existence of God…

Things like, “Why would a loving God allow so much evil in the world?”

“Why would God allow all of this devastation or sickness or wars (put whatever thought you may have or have heard in there as well)?

Sometimes, we just need to sit down and contemplate these things. Not do “doubt if God exists.” No… but to contemplate the importance of relying ON GOD in times like this.

Our guest today decided to explore the profound aspects of Faith and Spirituality in light of sharing the Gospel message of hope, trust and unwavering belief in a loving God…and how to provide answers to those who may be questioning these beliefs.

Laura Buckley is a devoted Christian author who is committed to exploring the profound aspects of faith and spirituality. She has dedicated her literary journey to sharing the Christian message with readers around the world.

To help accomplish this goal, she has published a wonderful book titled, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God.” This book offers the spiritual guidance and tangible proof to help reinforce the reader’s confidence in God’s presence and God’s Love.

Help me welcome to the program, Laura Buckley!

Laura, thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to visit with us today. I do appreciate joining us.

First question I always start with is this… other than that brief information I just shared, can you share with us in your own words, “Who is Laura Buckley?”

Is this book, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God,” your first book? Or have you authored other books?

Do you see people saying they “Believe in God” but yet, they kind of hold back or reserve doubt because they are not “really sure” one way or the other?

I believe another element that adds to the confusion is all of the different faiths and belief systems that are out there today. How did that play into your research and final product of this great book?

Personally, I believe it takes greater faith to NOT BELIEVE IN GOD than to be a believer… For example, despite man’s greatest technological ability – we have never heard of a scientist creating a new, fully functional biological organism – even a single cell amoeba! Let alone a complicated, fully sustained, replicating biological system even like a slug or a worm, let alone a human.

I guess the question there is, did you dive into any of the scientific explanations for the existence of God?

You have a chapter in the book titled “Objections and Difficult Questions.” Share with us a couple of the major objections you encountered as to why people do not believe in God and how your responded in your book?

Some people may say, “Faith is just wishing…” or “Faith is simply a crutch for weak people.” How does your book overcome those stereotypical ideas?

Some people try to equate God with religion. With so many different faiths in the world, how does your book reconcile those arguments into believing in the God of the Bible?

I saw you created an audio version of your book, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God.”  Share with us about that… did you record it yourself?

If someone wanted to obtain a copy of your book, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God,” how can they do that? How can they obtain a copy… We mentioned it is on Amazon, correct?

Laura, this all so interesting… and this book is definitely needful for such a time as this, in this chaotic world we are living in right now. I believe God is going to use this book to further the entrance of His Kingdom through Christ Jesus very soon. This is really a great book that answers some amazing questions…

If someone wanted to reach out to you, to ask a question or maybe do an interview such as this… how can they do that? How can someone contact you?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below…

Folks, from the dawn of time, humans have searched for answers to the most fundamental questions about our existence. Many have turned to religion to find meaning. The confusion is in “which religion.” Some get confused because the world is full of distractions. Others may struggle just to truly understand and trust in God's Love and His plan for you.

Laura Buckley’s book, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God” will answer these questions and turn your doubt to Faith and help to bring clarity and guidance on your journey toward a more profound understanding of God and His place in your life.

Drop down into the show notes right now and click the links right there. Reach out to Laura. But be sure to click the link to order your own copy of this great book, “21 Reasons for Trusting in God.” In fact, I recommend you order two, three or more copies of this book – it is that important!

Allow God to use you to share this work with others. Buy a couple of these books for the church library. Put them in the teen’s ministry area. Use this work to reach those you may not be able have this type of conversation with, for whatever reason. Amen!

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to.
